The troll hunter

>> Trollhunter (2010) - IMDb

Weird film, a bit like Blairwitch Project only it's about trolls and is, strange as it might sound, a little more down to earth. This movie suddenly just appeared out of the blue in Norway, I'd heard nothing about it before it was suddenly in cinemas. It features 3 very well known comedians, one of them playing the troll hunter himself. Norwegians would undoubtedly think of this as a comedy. We like acting serious about stuff which is silly and there are a lot of in-jokes here too so it's peppered throughout with humour that may not be appearant to non-norwegians, but it might still be enjoyable for those approaching it more from the horror angle.

Not brilliant, but entertaining enough and it was fun to watch something with trolls in it (there's a lot of them in our folklore). It also does a pretty good job of showcasing the country we live in, despite it being shot mostly during rainy days
